Abstract:
A 33-year-old woman was admitted for investigation of a round right hilar shadow on chest X-ray. A bronchial arteriogram revealed it was a bronchial artery aneurysm. She had no symptoms such as bloody sputum or hemoptysis. Although bronchial arterial embolization (BAE) is a good procedure for controlling hemoptysis, sometimes hemostasis is unsuccessful or bleeding recurs after BAE. Our patient underwent an operative aneurysmectomy and middle lobectomy to eliminate aneurysmal rupture instead of BAE.
